Application filed December 21, 1.905l vSlejra1- No@ 2921815@ and adjustthe hat after the performance and to rovide for hanging' the hat andwraps, faci ity of use, ease of adjustment, simplicity of construction,comparative inexpensiveness of manufacture, strength, and durability.These objects I attain by means of ,j the mechanism illustrated in theaccompa- 20 nying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a front elevation;Fig. 2, a rear elevation; Fig. 3, a vertical section Online 1 2 of Fig.2; Fig. 4, a vertical section on line 3 4 of Fig. 2 Fig. 5, a plan viewof the blank of which the socket-plate is formed; Fig. 6, a perspectiveview of the socket-plate, and Fig. 7 an edge view showing the mirrordrawn out for use. a

Similar reference-numerals refer to similar parts throughout the severalviews of the drawings.

The stationary frame 1, the swinging frame formed of pieces 7 and 8, themirror 3, and the hooks 4 constitute the 'body of the invention.

The numeral 2 designates the back of an auditorium-chair, only a portionof which is shown in the drawings.

The frame 1 is preferably stampedl from sheet metal in a single pieceand hollow underneath. Near the upper part of the side bars depressions11 may be formed to serve as halves of j ournal-boxes. A swinging framefor mounting mirror 3 is formed by the two vertical strips of metal 7and a transverse strip 8. The transverse strip 8 is bent over at eachend to form a U-shaped receptacle for the edgesof the mirror 3. Thelower ends of strips 7 are similarly bent, and the upper ends of'thesestri s are bent forward to form a circular eye an the ends then curvedoutward to correspond with the bevel of the mirror 3 and embrace it.Strip 8 may be riveted onto strips 7 at their intersection, thus forminga firm frame. f In the eyes formed at the upper ends of strips 7 a rod 6is mounted?, spreferably riveted .in the eyes, yS0

that it srisswth the swinging frame. This rod extendsbeyond the edges ofthe mirror, and thus provides pintles upon which the mirror swings,l thepintles being ymounted in boxes 11 and secured by additional adjustablehalves of boxes 5, which are secured to the frame underneath, so as tocover the pintles, andfastened with bolts 10. The boxes 5 are providedwith integral sockets, in which are pivoted hanging hooks 4, thusforming combined adjustable socket-plates and journal-boxes. These Iprefer to form of a sheetmetal blank, (shown in Fig. 5,) the finishedmember being shown in perspective in Fig. 6. The hanging hooks 4 beingmounted at the edge of the frame are adapted to fold into the frame andhave their knobs normally within the said frame, so that they will notinterfere with the clothing of persons passing by.

mirror and its frame are also Hush with the chair in the rear of the oneto which my attachment is applied, she may draw out the mirror intoposition and arrange her hair after removing her hat. She may. then hangher hat on one of the hooks 4 and her wraps on the other hook, and inthis way, -if-she likes, may cover the mirror, so that persons behindher may not look into it. After the performance she may adjust her hatand wraps by the use of the mrror. Hooks 4 may then be pressed into thereceptacle and mirror 3 pressed down flush with the stationary frame 1.It will be understood that on account of the friction produced upon theroo I have thus described my invention so that any one skilled in theart pertaining thereto may make and use it.

I claimsockets at right angles to the journal-boxes, a swinging framecarrying a mirror and provided With pntles at its upper corners, said Inan attachment for auditorium-chairs, pintles being adapted to be mountedin the 5 the combination ofastationary frame adaptjournal-boxes, andhooks mounted in the ed to be secured to a chair and formedwthfriction-sockets, as and for the purposes set depressions in its sidesnear its upper end, forth. adjustable clamping socket-p1ates secured tothe stationary frame inregister With said deio pressions to form journal-boXes, said socketplates being provided with integral friction-BESSIE M.
